It sure was a challenge getting all these pies together today without licking the spoon! But I must say... it was very small tastes that I took ... just lots of them! lol ... it's hard to be on a diet and then have to go and bake pies all day long.

At least my house is still warm ( and it smells scrumptious!!) ~ actually too warm ... my furnace part never showed up today, so we were unable to get that fixed. I'm not too happy about that. Especially when I went and paid all that extra shipping to have it here today. bummer
Now... I don't know when we'll get this taken care of; because the next two days we'll be so busy with the fisheree business. Always something!

Wow Mel, Your Pies look GRRREAT!!!Yaba daba doooyou should get some hefty bids on those. Way to go Girl. Proud of youBless Your Day tomorrow and Stay Warm...Andy and Nate are heading up in the wee hours of the morning...while the moon still shines bright...

Yummy looking, delicious pies!!! Hope they make you lots of money Mel. I love to bake and I really shouldn't eat the stuff as I am diabetic. Oh well, just another thing wrong with me. Wonder what is right?????

Mom told me to "check out Mel's blog"...too funny to hear her sayblog...lol.She said you posted pics of the pies and I should check it out,she's right again, you outdid yourself! They look scrumptious!

Mom, Eric and I went to the fisheree this afternoon and were astounded at what the pies were going for....Slim bought one of his brides pies for $60. By time we left, and we left early due to 'cold feet'...one of the pies went for $160. Awesome pies Mel...Next year I'm coming earlier with one pair of woolies. All for a good cause....hope I win the grill and beef package.BlessYa

Wow, Mel, those pies look absolutely heavenly. I could practically smell them wafting through the house - heyyyy.... Maybe that's what woke me up: the smell of freshly baked yummies... LOL And good on you for only taking little licks on the spoon, rather than going whole-hog for the whole pie; that took guts, Mel... :)

That's too bad about that furnace part. I sure do hope it arrives soon - especially since you paid for it to get there on a certain date. Maybe weather caused some kind of hold-up?

Well, I just wanted to stop by and see how you're doing and how things are going. Hope you have a great day. :)

Proverbs 3:3-4

Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.

1 Thessalonians 4:11-12

Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, 12so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.

Time For A Perspective!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely
in a pretty and well-preserved body; but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming -
"WOW!! -- What a Ride!"

In Wisconsin...

It's winter in Wisconsin
And the gentle breezes blow,
70 miles per hour at 52º below.
Oh, how I love Wisconsin
when the snow's up to your butt,
you take a breath of winter air -
your nose; it freezes shut.
Yes, the weather here is wonderful,
I guess I'll hang around.
I could never leave Wisconsin,
'Cause I'm frozen to the ground!

My Story ~

One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag or bitch...(that would be me) But that was a long time ago, and it was just that one day. THE END.
